In different seasons, the long-term wind direction was different.
In winter, it was easy for the northwest wind to blow, the kind that could stop hunger.
In summer, it was easy for the south wind to blow.
Now, the weather bureau said that the south wind would cause a vortex in the sky.
Didn't that mean that they wouldn't be able to film the whole summer?
"I think everyone knows how the canyon wind works." The weather bureau worker explained, "The situation here is similar. The wind in the open area comes in from the blown up gate. But this is a lake, so the humidity is higher and the temperature is lower than outside. The hot air that blows in will quickly rise and form a vortex. "
"This is only the case in summer, and the power of the vortex isn't that strong. As long as you don't build too high, there won't be any problems. "
"How can that be?" Director Ding Yin was very nervous, "Is there any way to solve this?"
"Just block the gate."
Everyone looked at the big gap in the distance and felt that this suggestion was too unreliable. They might as well build a film studio with that kind of money.
"If it's only a level six wind, then I don't think there will be a problem." Ye Qing, seeing their frowning faces, found it a bit funny: "Didn't you guys want the Wind Rocker Arm?"
"Level six winds are very common. If it can't resist, then how can it be called a wind resistant swing arm?"
"Haha ~" The weather bureau worker looked at him like he was an amateur, "This is a vortex, not a normal canyon wind."
"That's still a level six wind. It can't be a level eight wind."
Ye Qing looked at the sky, where a leaf was spinning, "Of course, I don't mean to question your professionalism."
"Meteorology and industry are two different specialties, and industry is our specialty. Since I said that our product can work in a level six wind, then it definitely can. "
"If I say you can't, then you can't." The weather bureau worker said firmly, "An 80-meter swing arm, do you know how much wind resistance will affect it?"
"I'm sure that if you put the arm up, it will be blown over by the vortex along with the base."
"Hmph ~ Young people nowadays really dare to say anything for money."
At this moment, the other people who were in charge of collecting weather data had also returned. When they heard that they were going to erect an eighty-meter-long arm in this kind of weather, they all said that it was a joke.
Director Ding Yin was a little hesitant. He felt that the technology of Monster Heavy Industries was very good. But since the engineer from the Weather Bureau said so, he had to listen.
"Director, I also think it's a little strange. Previously, the most professional camera arm company in the country made things that couldn't be used. They only took one day … "The cameraman was called Fu Xiangqing. He was used to using traditional rockers, so he naturally had a resistance to this new product.
"I personally lean towards Monster Heavy Industries."
Of course, they hadn't paid yet. These two products were still owned by Ye Qing. Director Ding Yin still hoped that Ye Qing would make the decision.
"How can you jump to conclusions without testing?" Xue Ning Gong was unhappy. The Weather Bureau and Ye Qing, she naturally believed in Ye Qing's words.
"We're arbitrary?" The two engineers from the meteorological laboratory waved the records in their hands. "It will definitely be blown over. This is our conclusion based on the meteorological data."
"How about this?"
"They say that practice is the truth. We can test its wind resistance."
If Ye Qing didn't prove himself, wouldn't he become a young man who dared to say anything to make money?
"Of course, for safety reasons, we can install the rocker arm in an open space with enough distance."
"You don't even care about the cost of the product. What else can we say?" The two engineers laughed. "We're thinking about safety. Now that the safety problem is solved, you can try it."
Hearing that Ye Qing had decided to test it, Director Ding Yin immediately became busy. He directed the crane and had the camera crew install the camera and wiring.
Now that it was a wind pillar level six, this kind of extreme test made the whole crew very interested. Even the people from the Weather Bureau didn't leave. They wanted to stay and watch the test and laugh at Ye Qing.
After all, they had already determined that this test was 100% a failure. If they left, wouldn't they feel guilty?
Soon, the preparations were completed. The camera was also connected to the rocker arm with a stabilizing function.
The huge base of the rocker arm was also fixed. Iron blocks were placed to make it heavier, and four long iron rods were inserted into the soil.
There were no steel cables, nor was there a retractable arm like a fishing rod. Instead, there were eight sections of silver-white light alloy folded together.
Ye Qing didn't have to stand under the rocker arm to prove anything. The operating handle was integrated into the base. Ye Qing pressed the buttons to raise and stabilize the rocker and left the scene unhurriedly.
Seeing Ye Qing leave, the crew all held their breaths and looked nervously at the rocker arm they had never seen before.
Director Ding Yin sat next to the monitor, his eyes fixed on the screen.
He could tell from experience whether the screen was shaking or not.
The first part to rise was the top section of the rocker arm.
It was only as thick as a normal person's wrist. The camera was fixed at the front, and the joint was like a mechanical arm.
It stood straight like a flagpole.
Then the second section suddenly rose, and the camera was pushed twenty meters up.
"Hiss!" Other than Ye Qing, everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air. How could it jump so straight and so fast?
Then the third section rose, and it was only as thick as a normal person's arm.
It was also straight. This time, Director Ding Yin felt like he was experiencing a roller coaster. The screen quickly rose, moved horizontally, and rose again.
"Aiya, aiya, it can't go any higher. The wind will blow it down." Even though the people from the Weather Bureau had already maintained a safe distance, they still subconsciously retreated a dozen meters.
When they retreated, the people in the film crew who were watching the show also retreated.
The fourth section, the fifth section, until the last section was completely extended.
At this time, the 80-meter long rocker arm was fully extended. There were no steel cables to hold it in place. There were only automatic joints like a universal shaft.
"It's going to fall, it's going to fall. Everyone, be careful." The engineer from the Weather Bureau had a serious face as he shouted.
Just as his voice fell, the eighty-meter-long folding rocker arm suddenly trembled.
It shook like a snake. Everyone in the crew could clearly see the eight sections of the arm rising up, drawing an inconspicuous circle in the air.
However, the position of the camera at the top didn't move at all. Even the distance shortened because of the circle was compensated by the folding arm at the front.
After the circle was drawn, the folding arm twisted again. Just like before, it didn't move much. Even the sound of the motor compensating for the angle couldn't be heard.
But as the folding arms danced, everyone heard a whooshing sound of the wind.
This was the sound of a column of wind passing through the arm. This whooshing sound was like music. Under its accompaniment, the rocker arm danced along with the wind.
The only thing that didn't change was the position of the camera and the image on Director Ding Yin's monitor.
"This … this …"
"What's going on?" The two engineers from the Weather Bureau widened their eyes and shouted: "How is this possible!"
